Abstract | Background: Cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) can be accompanied by other congenital anomalies. We conducted a long-term evaluation of the associations between cleft patterns, sex distribution, and accompanying congenital anomalies of patients with CL/P. Methods: The medical records of 739 patients with CL/P, seen between January 1967 and December 2020, were retrospectively reviewed. Fisher's exact test was used for statistical analysis. Results: Among the 739 patients with CL/P, the male-to-female ratio was 1.1. Regarding the cleft pattern, 121 (16.4%), 104 (14.1%), 280 (37.9%), 198 (26.8%), and 36 (4.9%) patients had cleft lip (CL), cleft lip and alveolus (CLA), cleft lip and palate (CLP), cleft palate (CP), and submucous cleft palate (SMCP), respectively. Congenital anomalies were identified in 107 (14.5%) cases, of which 53 (49.5%) had congenital heart disease. The frequencies of congenital anomalies patients with in CL/P were 14/225 (6.2%), 36/280 (12.9%), 43/198 (21.7%), and 14/36 (38.9%) for a combination of CL and CLA, CLP, CP, and SMCP, respectively. Accompanying syndromes and chromosomal anomalies were identified in 40 (5.4%) cases, in which Pierre Robin sequence (16 cases of CP and 4 cases of SMCP) was the most frequent. Conclusion: No sex differences were observed in CL/P, and CLP and CP were the most common cleft patterns. Congenital anomalies associated with CL/P were dominated by congenital heart disease and were most frequently identified in CP and SMCP cases. Notably, the Pierre Robin sequence, a complex syndrome characterized by micrognathia, glossoptosis, respiratory obstruction, and a U- or V-shaped CP, was found in cases of both CP and SMCP, and accounted for the symptoms in most cases. |
